Simply Beautiful Songs

I was thinking about this today when "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova from the movie Once came up on my iPod. There are some songs, that while musically simple, are incredibly beautiful because of the combination of really good voices and lyrics.

I was wondering what some of your favorite "simply beautiful" songs are.
By far my three favorite from the past few years are:

"Falling Slowly" (Once):

The first time I saw this movie in theaters, the scene where they play this song took me from enjoying the film to falling in love with it.

"Wintersong" (Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson):

These are probably my two favorite female singers right now and they combine beautifully for a song that transports me to sitting in front of a fireplace on a cold winter evening, laughing and drinking with my closest friends.
